Gents:
Have a question in regard to recoil shoulders on scope bases. I've looked at TPs bases and rings, they say thay have a recoil shoulder on their bases to prevent movement during harsh recoil. The quetion is, does this require a clip slotted receiver to be mounted ? If not please explain where the shoulder contacts the receiver.

Thanks, Mike

It's just a tiny lip that sits in the top of the ejection port cutout. It fits factory actions.

Look at this pic.
